How many of 'um you been to, sIx...
In the last year I've played at at least half a dozen "festivals", an' I've been surrounded with these folks... I've heard the songs and the talk...
I have two choices... Don't play or play... If you don't believe me, come on down to the "Festival of Spring" on Luray, Va. on May 13th where I'm booked to play...
All I can hope for is to reach a couple kids who come up to me after our performance and wanta learn more 'bout acoustic country blues which, in turn, will open their eyes to some fo the "other" politics...
But if I go rantin' on stage, I won't get future opportunities to reach a couple of kids... Meanwhile the redneck bands can say whatever they want... Yeah, they can make the jokes about the "intellectuals"... Haha... Didn't Hitler make jokes about "intellectuals", too???
I'm not gettin' on you, sIx, 'cause yer a purdy cool sIx, but lets get real here...
Bobert (alias Sidewalk Bob & the Pedestrians, in case anyone is coming to Luray and don't want to miss our performance...)
